The new gallery season

On cue, everyone else has begun posting their initial surveys of the new gallery season. The commentary seems to be a mixed lot, with a fair bit of criticism for New York’s early offerings. My knee jerk reaction is to defend our stuff (as if it was our stuff) but seeing as I haven’t been able to get out and see anything yet, that’d be premature. And to be fair to the NYC scene, a lot of shows have yet to open. This weekend the bulk of stuff will be out, but I’ll be traveling next weekend and unable to get down to the neighborhoods until the last weekend of September.

I’ve been scouring the gallery announcements for interesting stuff to see and the slate looks a bit sparse. Here’s a short list of shows to see:

Todd Hido at Julie Saul
Larry Sultan at Janet Borden (Web site hasn't been updated since last winter)
Timothy Greenfield-Sanders at Mary Boone
Wijnanda Deroo at Robert Mann
An-My Lê at Murray Guy
Candida Höfer at Sonnabend and the Goethe Institute
Lynn Davis at Edwynn Houk
